Decision details

Purpose of report: Consideration is given to the measures taken to protect and enhance the bus services in the area. The report outlines a number of options which might be considered to improve bus service connectivity between Holgate and Stonebow/Monks Cross, some of which would require additional resource.

Members are asked to: Acknowledge the contents of the report, consider possible further action and support officers in their efforts to retain and improve local bus services in and around Holgate and across the City.

RESOLVED:                       That the Executive Member for City Strategy agrees to:

i) note the content of the petition.

ii) take no further action on the routing of this bus service.

REASON:                  A number of bus services connect with route 5 from Acomb at both the railway station and on Blossom Street offering a good level of interchange. Officers will continue to work with bus operators to develop the level of service to this part of York.
